Out with fractured hand Jones sustained a fractured left hand on a hit by pitch during Tuesday's game at Milwaukee.

Impact It's a devastating development for Jones and the Tigers, as he was enjoying the best production of his career with an .848 OPS and five homers through 30 games. The 28-year-old's 2019 season ended in a similar fashion, as he suffered a fractured left wrist in early August and missed the rest of the season. It's too early to tell if Jones will require surgery to address the fracture, but he's likely out for the final month of the season regardless.

Leaves after HBP Jones was removed from Tuesday's game against the Brewers after being hit by a pitch on the hand/wrist area, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact The 28-year-old missed the final eight weeks of 2019 after suffering a fractured left wrist from a hit by pitch, so one can only hope Tuesday's incident yields a different result. Jones is in the midst of the best season of his career with a .268/.333/.515 slash line, five homers and 14 RBI through 30 games.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Not in Game 2 lineup Jones isn't in the lineup for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Twins.

Impact Jones will take a seat for the second game of Saturday's twin bill after going 2-for-4 with one run in Game 1. Victor Reyes will shift to center field with Cameron Maybin starting in right.

AUGUST 29, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Back in action Jones (hamstring) is starting in center field and hitting sixth Thursday against the Twins.

Impact Jones missed Wednesday's game with right calf tightness but is good to go for Thursday's series opener against Minnesota. He's hitting .273/.330/.534 with five homers and a 6:31 BB:K through 27 games this season.

AUGUST 27, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting with calf injury Jones (calf) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Cubs.

Impact He was pulled from Tuesday's game with right calf tightness and will need at least a day to get right. Victor Reyes is starting in center field and leading off.

Picks up calf injury Jones was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cubs with right calf tightness.

Impact The 28-year-old went 1-for-3 with a run scored and a sacrifice fly before exiting at the start of the eighth inning. Jones should be considered day-to-day until the severity of the injury is known.

AUGUST 26, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Not in Saturday's lineup Jones isn't in the lineup Saturday against Cleveland.

Impact Jones smacked a double in Friday's contest, but he'll take a seat for the second game of the series against Cleveland with right-hander Shane Bieber on the mound. Victor Reyes will take over in center field, batting ninth.

AUGUST 15, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Gets day off Jones is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Jones has been battling an abdominal issue off and on for a little over a week, so manager Ron Gardenhire is likely just giving the center fielder some routine maintenance in the day game after a night game. Harold Castro will replace Jones in the lineup and bat seventh.

AUGUST 12, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Hits inside-the-park homer Monday Jones went 1-for-3 with a two-run, inside-the-park home run in Monday's 5-1 win over the White Sox.

Impact Jones hit a low line drive with two outs in the seventh inning, and when it got past a diving Adam Engel in center, it was off to the races. The Detroit center fielder has gotten off to a great start, as he now has five home runs in just 13 games. His career high is 11 home runs, which is what he hit in each of the last two years. At this rate, Jones could beat that mark with only the 60-game schedule to work with.

AUGUST 11, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in series opener Jones (abdomen) is in the lineup Monday against the White Sox.

Impact Jones was removed in the third inning of Sunday's contest with an abdominal issue that he's apparently dealt with for a week. However, manager Ron Gardenhire said that Jones came in Monday feeling fine, and he felt comfortable placing him in the lineup for the series opener against the White Sox. The 28-year-old carries a 1.139 OPS with four home runs and 12 RBI over 12 games this season.

AUGUST 10, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Slated for evaluation Monday Jones (abdomen) will be examined Monday to better determine the nature of his injury, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Jones exited in the third inning of Sunday's game against the Pirates with left abdominal tightness. He told manager Ron Gardenhire that he's been dealing with the issue for about a week, and Monday's examination could provide a better idea of how much time he could miss. Jones had gone 2-for-9 with a home run, three RBI and three runs over the two games prior to Sunday's contest.

Exits early Sunday Jones was removed in the bottom of the third inning of Sunday's game against the Pirates with left abdominal tightness.

Impact Jones may have sustained the injury during his plate appearance in the top half of the frame, when he struck out on five pitches. Harold Castro came on in center field as a replacement for Jones, who is considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus the White Sox. Jones is batting .333 with four home runs, 10 RBI and nine runs over 12 games this season.

Sitting Game 2 Jones is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Reds.

Impact Jones started Game 1 and went 0-for-3 during the seven-inning contest. Victor Reyes will start in center field and bat leadoff for the second game.

AUGUST 2, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Continues hot start Jones went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a solo home run and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Royals.

Impact Batting from the No. 9 spot, Jones has gotten off to a great start to the season, as he now has three home runs, six RBI, six runs scored and a 1.450 OPS through six games. The 28-year-old has shown flashes before at the MLB level but has yet to put it all together. Perhaps the shorter season will benefit Jones and keep him from getting into too many prolonged slumps.

Homers again Monday Jones went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's loss to the Royals.

Impact Jones now has two home runs and a 1.143 OPS through four games. The 28-year-old center fielder has been batting ninth so far for the Tigers, though that could change if he keeps up this hot streak. Jones batted ninth 43 times last season but also made 32 starts as the team's leadoff hitter.
